Not a lot of details have been outed by the benchmark, but this is still the first time we've seen a prototype Taimen doing such a thing.

    A score of 6000+ on Geekbench for multi-core is great, but only 1800+ for single-core is disappointing. Especially considering that many apps don't use multi-core. 3000+ should be pursued urgently for these performance unbalanced chipsets.

      All of these bezel divas, jesus

        I am all game with stereo speakers and less bezels, done. And make that glass bit on the back ceramic or something, so its less scratch prone.

        Pixel was the best phone of 2016 I used, so have high hope for the second iteration now. Though Google's after sales is nightmare.

          Hopefully this time they will change their depressing design. Pixels are great phones, it should look better. Google don't follow sony, come to the light and trim those bezels.

            Okay, looks like we'll be stuck at 4 gigs of RAM for 2 years straight for flagships. Can you believe we've been getting phones with 4 gigs of RAM since 2015? Crazy, right!

                Anonymous, 11 May 2017Why do I get the feeling that HTC is holding back on specs ... moreNexus = phone made by any OEM that has stock android inside.

                Pixel = phone designed by Google, HTC just builts it like Foxconn builts iPhone.

                  Anonymous, 11 May 2017Why do we need a 5", 5.5" and now 6"? Why there is no 4.5"?!Because 4.5 screens are for girls with small hands or little handed men.

                    Hopefully Google will wake up of its fairy dream,and get back to reality,and price its phone properly.Cause with the Pixels,they were like Alice in Wonderland.Their phones doesnt offer ANYTHING,except the smoothest Android experience,and the quick software updates.Absolute basic things,features are missing at their phones.No SD -card,no removable battery,not any sensors,not any special features.They are absolutely no match to a S series Samsung,or a Note.But they are asking for the same pricetag...

                                  Best news of day I love the Nexus/Pixel line of Smartphones and look forward each year to them. Next up though is Google I/O and that is just as exciting.
